Birth, Demon Vanquishing World (3)

0There were a total of nine empires in the Demon Vanquishing World. All of them were vast and had a population of billions.

There were endless oceans between empires.

Qing Empire, Scarlet Cloud State, Cheng'an Prefecture, White County.

White County was a county with a population of almost 300,000 people, and it was quite prosperous. The Chen family in the county had run a medicinal herb business for more than a century, and it was deeply rooted. It was one of the top families in White County.

In a small courtyard in the Chen family's mansion.

The eldest son of the Chen family's second son, Chen Qi, sat there motionless, his eyes filled with tears.

"From tomorrow onward, you're no longer part of the Chen family!"

"You're already an adult, but you don't have the slightest bit of motivation! Go out and make a name for yourself tomorrow. If you can't make a name for yourself, don't come back."

"Where's the silver my mother left me? Give it to me, and I'll go out and adventure!"

"Your mother left it to you? If I give it all to you now, won't you just spend it all? I'll give you some if your performance shows a little promise. If you're a good-for-nothing? It's a waste to give it to you!"

"That was left to me when I was eight years old, before my mother died."

"Whatever is your mother's is also mine! Chen Qi, listen up—what I give you is yours! If I choose not to give anything to you, you'll get not a single cent!"

"You want me to go out alone and fend for myself with just 100 taels of silver? I won't be able to return unless I make a name for myself? Who doesn't know that danger is everywhere outside? How many people die every year when running a business? Dad, you're my father! How can you do this?"

"I'm doing this for your own good! You'll understand my point in the future."

"Dad, you disgust me! It's fine if you take away my mother's dowry and use the family's silver to gallivant, but you are now usurping the silver my mother left me before she died. You want me to go out and fend for myself, and you say it's for my own good? Why don't you go out and make a living yourself? Why don't you go out and fend for yourself?"

"How dare you!?"

Slap!

Chen Qi sat there as the conversation he had with his father kept repeating in his mind. He didn't care about the slap, but the only family member he had in the world—his father, Chen Shi'an—had given him such treatment, leaving him heartbroken.

His only family member—his father!

His mother died when he was eight. Later on, his father remarried and gave birth to his younger half-siblings.

Chen Qi had been very careful at home, afraid of angering his father and offending his stepmother. He had slowly grown up in this environment and was already 20 years old, but he was now being chased out of the house by his father?

Mom, I really miss you. Chen Qi sat there with tears streaming down his face.

Silently, a consciousness descended.

Chen Qi was slightly taken aback. He sat there for a moment before wiping the tears off his face.

Xu Jingming took in Chen Qi's memories and quickly understood everything. He even wanted to usurp the money his ex-wife left his son before her death, and he even forced his eldest son out of the house? How shameless.

I've arrived in the Demon Vanquishing World. Xu Jingming looked around. Everything begins with the Chen family in White County.

…

In a large house in the Chen family.

The Chen family patriarch sat there with his triangular eyes drooping as he looked at Chen Shi'an in front of him.

"Uncle," Chen Shi'an greeted with a smile.

"Has your eldest son, Chen Qi, been chased out?" The old patriarch's voice was cold.

"He'll be kicked out tomorrow," Chen Shi'an immediately replied.

The old patriarch nodded. "The maternal side of Chen Qi's family, the Wu family, has gotten into big trouble. Some are imprisoned, and some are fleeing… It took our Chen family more than 100 years to build up our family business. We can't be burdened by the Wu family; we have to draw the line."

"I understand, I understand." Chen Shi'an nodded.

"Yes, I know you're a good son, Shi'an." The old patriarch nodded. "I don't want to see Chen Qi in the Chen family before noon tomorrow. I'll also gather the clansmen at the ancestral hall tomorrow night and remove Chen Qi's name from our family tree!"

"It's only right." Chen Shi'an nodded. "We can't let Chen Qi harm our Chen family."
